I suppose. I know The Hobbit was 60 years before the LOTR journey began, but Bilbo makes his references to the Lonely Mountain. It would have been nice if Gandalf had done something similar. Even Frodo mentions how Gandalf is labeled a "disturber of the peace" in The Shire. Frodo wasn't there back then! lol Still, we all know where that title stems from.

Having the dwarves battle in competition and count their kills would be most comical. Though, I'm sure it would be a challenge to keep up with all 12 of them. lol Bombur might come in last, as he typically does in the book.

Dude, the waiting is horrible! At least throw us some pics, or a list, and make the items available for preorder. There are too many fans for this to drag out. I actually preordered the Goblin King Battle Playset yesterday without knowing what will be included. I have my hopes high!
